Dear Greens,

This is the first of a series of ‘letters’ to the main progressive political parties in the UK. No one asked me to write and I guess only those that want to be constructively challenged will read them. But that is the spirit in which this and the letters to follow are meant, somewhere between generosity and hope, and realism and frustration that our political system isn’t working and none of our parties are yet good enough on their own – but might be together. So here goes.
